Ochsner MD Anderson in New Orleans will offer biology-guided radiotherapy, which injects a radiopharmaceutical consumed by cancer cells and uses the resulting signals to aim radiation in real time, even as tumors shift with breathing.

Transposable elements that jumped from another fruit fly species, not small DNA errors, cause most lethal mutations in wild Drosophila melanogaster. The finding, from 21,000 fly crosses over five years, reshapes how geneticists think about harmful variation in populations.

Researchers analyzing decades of biological monitoring data from Pennsylvania streams found that conventional oil and gas infrastructure was more strongly associated with declines in aquatic biodiversity than unconventional shale (fracking) development.

A new class of aerogel biomaterial assembled from size-controlled protein microparticles allows researchers to precisely tune pore geometry, promoting rapid blood vessel growth in wounds that currently have limited treatment options.

New research presented at the Cognitive Neuroscience Society meeting shows that AI language models can accurately predict neural responses to speech in children as young as 2, while genetic studies reveal shared biological roots between rhythm disorders and dyslexia.

The NR2F1 Foundation, dedicated to advancing research and support for Bosch-Boonstra-Schaaf Optic Atrophy Syndrome, has hired Leora Westbrook as its first executive director, marking a shift from all-volunteer operations to professional infrastructure.

Hebrew University researchers demonstrated 3D-printed photonic lanterns that combine light from up to 37 multimode VCSEL lasers into one fiber with losses as low as 0.6 dB, compressing what typically requires large optical systems into a device under 500 micrometers long.

Analysis of CDC survey data shows stroke survivors under age 50 experience nearly double the poor mental health days and concentration difficulties of older survivors, with unemployment dramatically worsening outcomes.

Researchers at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya examined how AI tools in the workplace are creating new occupational health risks, including technostress and excessive surveillance, while regulatory frameworks lag behind deployment.

An MD Anderson study of more than 900 men on active surveillance found that those with low baseline testosterone levels had a 60% higher likelihood of their prostate cancer progressing to a more aggressive state, even after adjusting for age, PSA, and BMI.

Genomic and isotopic analysis of parrot feathers found at the ancient Peruvian religious center of Pachacamac shows that four Amazonian species were transported alive more than 500 kilometers across the Andes through organized pre-Inca trade networks.

Researchers at Harbin Institute of Technology found that snowflake size and distribution significantly affect how snow accumulates on roofs, with larger particles creating greater loads, especially under high-wind conditions.

Researchers modeled airflow through individual trees and found that a tree's species and physical structure dramatically affect how far and where its pollen disperses, providing data that could inform urban planning decisions about green spaces.

In a 25-year follow-up of nearly 2,800 women from the Women's Health Initiative, a single blood measurement of the protein p-tau217 predicted future dementia risk decades before any cognitive symptoms emerged.

A cohort study of 20 low-mortality countries found that women ages 35 to 60 consistently experienced higher cancer mortality than men of the same age, a pattern driven by early-onset reproductive cancers and observed across generations.

New research in JAMA Network Open shows that fewer than 25% of adults with overweight or obesity without diabetes remained on any GLP-1 receptor agonist after one year, with frequent switching between agents a common pattern.

University of Michigan researchers identified a neural pathway connecting tooth sensory neurons to the brain's dopamine system, revealing that gnawing in rodents is actively reinforced by a biochemical reward signal, not just a mechanical necessity.

UC San Diego researchers found that the receptor PAR1 triggers either protective or inflammatory responses in blood vessels depending on where its partner enzyme GRK5 sits within the cell, a finding that could guide new therapies for sepsis and stroke.

Peking University engineers built a robotic suction disc modeled on lamprey anatomy that grips objects from 0.01-gram microchips to 11.4-kilogram desks, works in air and underwater, and maintains adhesion even after vacuum failure.

A hybrid AI model called DGIFE uses feature decoupling and data augmentation to decode EEG signals reliably across different people and devices, hitting 84% accuracy on motor imagery tasks without needing data from the target user.

A new AI framework analyzing single-lead ECG data from a wearable chest patch can predict ischemic events roughly 18 minutes before they become critical, giving emergency teams a window to act before irreversible heart muscle damage occurs.

JMIR Publications and the University of Turku have launched an unlimited open access publishing agreement that eliminates per-article fees for the Finnish university's researchers across all JMIR journals through 2026.

Astronomers traced a short gamma-ray burst to a tidal tail of debris between colliding galaxies about 8.5 billion light-years away, suggesting that galactic mergers trigger star formation that eventually produces the neutron star collisions responsible for creating heavy elements like gold and platinum.

The APS Global Physics Summit in Denver will feature more than 12,000 presentations on astrophysics, particle physics, quantum information science, and more. Highlights include a session with all three 2025 Nobel physics laureates and a virtual tour of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.

The 2026 release of Wiley's Mass Spectra of Designer Drugs adds over 700 new spectra and more than 400 new compounds, bringing the total to 37,075 spectra covering 27,900 chemical entities used by forensic and toxicology laboratories worldwide.
